Oostburg's A.J. Kissel needed all of 32 seconds to pin Markesan's Eric Schwandt in a Division 3 quarterfinal at 17 1 pounds.
Kissel got a takedown about 4 seconds into the match, and also got a fan in Schwandt, who's only goal was not to get pinned by the two-time state champion.
"He's the most aggressive wrestler I've ever seen," said Schwandt (28-10).
Schwandt knew what he was up against when finding out he was paired against Kissel (41-0), who has pinned 30 opponents this season and has 116 for his career, ranking him second all-time in the state.
"He intimidated me," Schwandt said. "He walks around in warmups, slaps his legs, and lets you know who's boss. He doesn't look as strong as he is, but he must work out a lot.
"He's also a great guy, wishing me luck after the match. I'm pulling for him."
